The World's Most Embarrassing Cellphone Accessories

Most of us like gadgets, but there are some cellphone accessories that are just too embarrassing to own.

There are hundreds of different accessories for cellphones. Some are useful, some decorative and others are down right embarrassing.

  1. The Phone Thong

    This sexy little leather thong is supposed to make your cellphone look really cool. This one is called the "Hip Hugger" and it's designed for the discerning woman who wants to look different. It retails at around $15 (£7.50).

  2. Retro Cellphone Receiver

    Cellphones have been getting smaller and thinner. They weight less than they have ever done but this retro accessory seems to be hankering after the old days when everyone had a corded telephone sitting on a telephone table in their hallway. This 8 inch attachment that turns your cell phone into a retro phone also comes in pink and black and it cost about $22 (£11).

  3. Cellphone Boots

    These boots come in at $20 (£10) and they are designed to be a really trendy cellphone holder. There are other far more sexy styles of boot available but it's hard to imagine who would buy them, let alone who would risk their "street cred" by being seen with them attached to their phone.

  4. Ear Phone Holder

    You already have this one, or at least the potential for it. Just get an oversized hole pierced through your earlobe and stretch it gradually until you can slip you cellphone into it. This would certainly get you noticed but it is more likely to make onlookers cringe. Ouch!

  5. Sexy Panties Cellphone Strap

    This flimsy lingerie is designed to look sexy and give out a message but perhaps that's better left to the imagination. These cost around $20.

  6. Sushi Strap

    There is definitely something fishy about this roe attached to a cellphone. You can get matching sushi screen savers for you cellphone, iPod and PC. Needless to say, this one came from Japan.

The ear phone holder looks too heavy and painful to have.

Strange, I'm not sure I'd be caught with any of these.

They're all pretty tasteless, but the earphone holder is positively gross in my opinion. Ugh! If anyone's interested, the way to develop that big hole is to start with a regular earring and then gradually stretch the hole using progressively bigger earring inserts that look like the inner rim of a tyre, so you get a round window in your earlobe. I know this because I knew someone who did it.
